How does the hibiscus survive the summer?

The hibiscus has a weak root system. Whenever the soil in the pot becomes dry and loose, it must be watered immediately, especially in the hot summer when the sun is strong and the temperature rises. The hibiscus can easily become thirsty. If the soil in the pot is dry and the hibiscus is not watered in time, it will easily wither and die.

Stop fertilizing potted hibiscus

During the hot and humid midsummer, the growth vigor of the small hibiscus is not as fast as in spring and autumn. Therefore, the first thing to do in summer is to stop fertilizing the hibiscus.

Place the small hibiscus in a ventilated place where the sunlight is not strong, such as the corner of a balcony with a window or under the shade of a lush tree. Watering is crucial. The pot should be kept moist at all times. Do not let the small hibiscus dry up due to forgetting to water it.

Watering potted hibiscus appropriately

Generally, watering is only needed once a day. This depends on the different potting soil of the flower lovers. Some flower lovers have better potting soil conditions and good air permeability, so the water evaporates faster. In addition, the climate is dry, hot, high temperature and little rain, so more watering is needed, and it should be reasonable. Although the hibiscus likes moisture, it is afraid of waterlogging, so the selected potting soil must have good air permeability.
